I really did not want to post this, because there are already a billion of posts already bashing GS and Eidos, but I feel it needs to be posted.
Then take a look at the Kane and Lynch site.
Finally, take a look at the reviews GameInformer and Gamespy gave the game.
My thoughts? Eidos may have had the ratings with the quotes trying to make it seem like a review that it really wasn't. I went to the site and loaded it up, but all I saw were the quotes. Maybe the picture on that site was fabricated, maybe it was not. Maybe Eidos really did put that up there on the site, then changed it to avoid more publicity? It wouldn't surprise me if this was the truth. Take it for what it's worth. Make of it what you will.
This is so ridiculous. Obviously the people speaking on behalf of CNET are probably lying and telling people what they want to hear. Regardless, the damage is done. It makes me wonder what to believe sometimes. But then again, this is the internet. Not everything is what it seems.

P.S: I think many of you should read Bob Colayco's Blog post about the controversy in general. I found it interesting.
